Read full description

MottoMonitoring is designed to help dental professionals monitor the evolution of their patients’ orthodontic treatments remotely, between in-practice appointments. It can only be used under the supervision of a clinician, who provides patients with their personal login information. The MottoMonitoring app is intended to be used with the patented DM Cheek Retractor, to maximize the quality of each intraoral picture taken with patients’ smartphones. The app provides: • Ease of use: No technical expertise is needed to use MottoMonitoring. An in-app tutorial is available explaining how to take good intra-oral pictures. • Convenience: With regular screening of the orthodontic treatment evolution, from the comfort of home. • Control: Regular monitoring can help prevent potential treatment complications. • Communication: Patients receive specific notifications and advice from their practitioner via the app, and can send messages, too. • Motivation: Patients see their treatment progress with a before/after comparison, and stay motivated throughout their treatment with badges.
